Discussion Topic Posted for the NANOTUBE-99 Workshop:

• Are polymer composites the right place to start in attempting to utilize the strength of nanotubes to revolutionize the materials world?

• Or should we be trying to make superstrong ropes of nanotubes that may or may not be woven into a fabric?

• When is the right time to try to make metal or ceramic matrix composites with nanotubes?

• Are MWNTs more likely to be used in composites than SWNTs even though SWNTs should have a higher tensile strength?
